Boooo!

topic posted Mon, April 18, 2005 - 7:46 PM by  IndiGoa
"My" Irish laddie just dropped the bomb on me that he's married...damn SOB! Several weeks after I met him he actually volunteered the info to me that he was divorced (for cheating, of all things - I shoulda known!), but he sort of neglected to mention the fact that he remarried another woman in Ireland. When he told me and I asked him why he was dishonest to me he said he technically didn't lie because I didn't ASK him specifically if he had remarried...geez, I didn't think I had to! He wanted to know if his being married was a problem since she's there and we're here and I told him that yeah, it was a BIG problem - I absolutely positively do NOT date married men.

Needless to say, he's outta my life. I just hope she catches him someday and gives him the boot. I suppose that's why he does it overseas, though... :(((

I still adore Irish accents, though. ;)

    HARSH. The sin of omission is almost worse than an outright lie, in my opinion. It has the absolute same intent to decieve. What a childish excuse. And what a poor excuse for a man!!

    Bollocks to him.

      Bad form!!!

      I'm getting divorced from a jerk like that. He wasn't married to anyone else - that I know of - but his half-truthing days (made that word up all by myself...) are over with me.

    Hello IndiGoa.
    I can assure you we are not all like that.

    I can also assure you that I am not, nor ever have been, engaged or married.

    ...but I am NOT available, sorry.

      Oh, I try to remember that not all guys everywhere are like that. I've known a few terribly deceptive American guys as well. But I think he did know that I couldn't make a stand against that fabulous accent.lol

      Resistance...is...futile...

      ;))

      Update - now that he's figured out he's in the major dog house with me, he's suddenly changed his story and now he's *not* married, nor ever has been. He says he was just joking...

      hahahaha!

        Yeah right - I have this big orange bridge for sale - very pretty and you can buy it for $5 a day on the installment plan.

        This all makes me really happy I'm openly - poly/non-monogamous - what you see is what you get.

          Bingo - as long as I know up front what the game is, I can at least then decide for myself whether or not I want to participate. :)

              OK, excuse me while I go off on a rant, but...
              Honesty is hard to find, because guys who are honest are single.

              I was recently told by a good friend of mine that the reason I was single was because I was to honest, and that I needed to "change my game". When I told her I didn't play a game, but that I was just myself, she said "That's where the problem lies"

              Dating is a game where lying, or "withholding the truth" are the keys. (and that applies equally to women as to men)

                Now, why can't there be more guys like you?<g> I've always been incredibly annoyed by people who play games, because eventually the truth is going to come out if they stick around long enough...as I've so abundantly witnessed recently.lol

                  I'm so sorry things turned out this way. When I read your post about meeting this guy, and you said he was "unreliable" (-at least I *think* that's the word you used-), and you described some of what the problem was, my gut reaction was that he was either married or a bigamist. (Possibly both.) They tend to be great liars.

                  I was hoping I was wrong. *sigh*

                  Good luck with future guys. And I have to say, I much prefer complete honesty, and am always honest with everyone I meet. (Sometimes *too* honest! ;P )

                  *hug*

                  Perhaps you would have more luck finding a good guy at a Ren. Faire? It's a thought, anyway. :)

                Excuse me I'm not trying to insult your friend but COUGHbullshitCOUGH!

                You just keep being honest......and don't ever LISTEN TO THAT KIND OF SHITE! GRRRRRRRRRRRR

                  Agreed! If you're not yourself and that's how you attract a man, how do you expect to ever BE yourself afterwards? It doesn't make sense.
